    Lead generation for nearly any kind of business. I can't even explain how easy it is to set everything up. I also love that I can send test emails to myself. Sequencing and Scheduling out follow-ups help me stay on top of potential sales, especially smaller sales that aren't always on my radar 24/7. Sending post-sale information on a regular basis. Basically, Gmelius works for the entire sales cycle, pre to post.

    Usability
    Meta Platforms Inc
    Simple interface, easy to use in mobile or web format. There are little things worth tweaking, as always, but they also have frequent app updates to squash bugs and keep things caught up with current UX trends. It is easily accessible in the Facebook app and in its own app, making it quick to use

    Facebook Messenger is very similar to what we use on Instagram, it just depends what platform your followers are on

    We switched to Gmelius from Mixmax because we wanted to try the inbox/label sharing features. Ultimately, Mixmax is more accurate with tracking opens, and it is much more user friendly. We switched back to Mixmax after about a year using Gmelius. Mailshake is also a better tool for sending out high volumes of emails, as it is better at making sure your email address doesn't get flagged as spam.

    • I reliably post 20-30% higher activity numbers weekly due to my use of Gmelius
    • Gmelius is a significant contributer to my sales success -- The last two years I have more than doubled company-issued sales targets
    • Gmelius saves me tons of time each week due to automated campaigns. I would say I've reclaimed at least 20% of my work week scheduling out follow up and pre-scheduling lead gen email campaigns out.
